I don't think it's because it wouldn't fit on vinyl. I have both the
vinyl and CD of D&D and it's not on either.

As for the "S" word, I can't believe that would be the reason. This
was the late 1980's for goodness sake! After all, back in the 1960's,
the Jefferson Airplane had no trouble getting the phrase "Up against
the wall motherf***er" onto an album ("We Can Be Together" on
Volunteers). Did MO or their record company really think our fragile
sensibilities would be harmed by the word shit????

I have a feeling that GB H'way wouldn't have fit onto a vinyl
record, or even a cassette?
 
5 songs one side, 6 on the other, there may not have been space -
maybe that's why the vinyl finished with Sometimes.
 
It was a long time ago, but were there issues with the 'S' word in
GB H'way in some countries?

you can download lossless tracks from itunes but this is not common.
they are files with .m4a extension. however the only way to get them
out of there is burn to CD and extract

however the credibility of the article is questionnable. D&D is
already released (they say 29/4, maybe this is US date) and it has
always included gunbarrell hwy

i can see the oils' point though. lets face it - they wont sell many
so why bother with the cost of producing CDs?

How could people get so unkind?

The U.S. version of D&D did not include Gunbarrel Highway, never did.
I could never figure out why.
